The suburb is located in the Adelaide Hills, giving the area a hilly terrain. Parks located in the suburb include Thalassa Park.Aberfoyle Park is part of the City of Onkaparinga. It is in the South Australian House of Assembly (state) electoral district of Fisher, whose current member is Nat Cook, and the Australian House of Representatives (federal) Division of Boothby, whose representative is Nicolle Flint.The Happy Valley sports park, which is located near Aberfoyle Park High School, contains the Happy Valley Football Club who are known as the Vikings, the Happy Valley Cricket Club, the Happy Valley Tennis Club, a lawn bowls club, a BMX club with a track and the Aberfoyle Park Scout group.Although little original plant cover remains, local reserves and parks have been retained for native vegetation. Adjacent to Sauerbier Creek, for example, is a significant project where silver banksia open woodland is being fostered. Likewise, in the reserves that span the Field River catchment, past Happy Valley Oval, there is a significant number of river red gum ( Eucalyptus camaldulensis ). Sloping from the hills, the land falls into the catchment of the Field River and Happy Valley Reservoir and includes areas of alluvial floodplains. The soils of the region are grey to white sands and sandy loams and have predominantly featured woodlands that comprised South Australian blue gum ( Eucalyptus leucoxylon ), southern cypress pine ( Callitris gracilis ), drooping sheoak ( Allocasuarina verticillata ) and, along water courses, river red gum. Beneath the trees, at the time of European settlement in the 1830s, were shrubs like kangaroo thorn ( Acacia paradoxa ), silver banksia ( Banksia marginata ), yacca ( Xanthorrhoea semiplana ), flame heath ( Astroloma conostephioides ) and cranberry heath ( Astroloma humifusum ).
